Description
Washington, DC: Austin Jenkins Co., Manufacturing Publishers of High Grade Subscription Books, 1920. Very good.. Irregularly paginated with a selection of the published text, along with numerous plates and unused subscription leaves at the end of the text. Original blue cloth decoratively stamped in red, grey, and black on the front cover, with additional flap attached to the front fore-edge which folds inward, showing the intended spine of the book. Light wear and soiling, corners and spine ends rubbed. Title page with slight tear in gutter margin, some minor scattered soiling to text, light staining to outer margin of last few leaves. About very good, but binding unusually bright and square. A handsome salesman's sample book for Kelly Miller's "Intensely Human and Brilliant Account of the World War and Why and For What Purpose America and the Allies Are Fighting and the Important Part Taken by the Negro." As with similar salesman's "dummies," the work contains a selection of text including the table of contents, numerous illustrated and photographic plates (in various tints and with some in color) intended to appear in the final published work, and a section for subscribers to fill in orders (blank here). The latter includes a page of text detailing the composition of the intended final published text, with a chapter list, text about the "Great Historical Value" of the book, a short biography of the author, and details about three different editions available to buyers: "Library" (bound in "Rich red morocco" with sixteen color plates, priced $3,50), "Popular" ("Vellum de Luxe cloth," also with sixteen plates, priced $2.75) and the "Million" edition ("Cloth binding without color plates," priced $2.50). The author, himself African American, was the Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences at Howard University. A particularly bright example of an informative and visually-rich salesman's sample book for a noted African-American publication celebrating the service of Black troops in the Great War.

Contemporary blind-ruled mottled calf, flat spine, gilt morocco title label, red edges; in very good condition, some minor marginal dampstaining. From the library of Charles Atwood Kofoid with his bookplate, also 2 cancelled ex libris inscriptions on title, old manuscript notes about the seven fields of surgery on the front free endleaf. Later edition of the most celebrated anatomy manual of the eighteenth century. First published in 1717, the text covers bones, muscles and ligaments, veins and arteries, glands, reproductive organs, eyes, and the construction of the face, mouth, and nose. The detailed plates illuminate the technical language of the treatise. Heister (1683-1758) was a German doctor and botanist known as “the founder of scientific surgery in Germany” (Garrison-Morton). He was the first clinician to perform a post-mortem of appendicitis and coined the term “tracheotomy”. Blake 203; Garrison Morton, 5576; Hirsch III:141.

Description
Fort Ellis, NC, near New Bern, 1862. Oblong folio broadsheet, uniformly tanned. 12-3/4" x 18-1/2." Printed, with manuscript additions. Signed in ink by J.M. Mayo, Commanding Company. Contemporary "Duplicate." A few pinholes at fold intersections, not affecting text, Very Good. Most spaces available for the requested detailed information are left blank. Numbers of enlisted and commissioned officers present and absent are listed with notations of "alterations since last monthly return." 122 men were present for duty at the post. George L. Medlin was "furloughed for sickness." Captain Mayo is the only commissioned officer listed as "present." The return was completed about six weeks before the Battle of New Bern James Micajah Mayo "studied law at the University of Virginia in 1859 and 1860. In October of 1861, following the outbreak of the Civil War, he was appointed to the rank of Captain in the Confederate States Army and organized the North Carolina 2nd Artillery Regiment, Company F (AKA North Carolina 36th regiment, Company F), nicknamed 'The Pamlico Artillery'. On March 14, 1862, at the Battle of New Bern, NC, his company defended Fort Ellis on the Neuse River about four miles south of New Bern. The fort contained eight guns. When the union troops broke through the confederate defenses south of Fort Ellis, Mayo was ordered to destroy his guns and the ammunition magazine which contained over 3000 pounds of powder and 500 loaded shells, so that they would not fall into the hands of the enemy. He sent his men out of danger, placed the powder 'trail' to the explosives and lit it himself. It was reported the explosion was the largest and loudest of the entire battle. Unfortunately, Captain Mayo was not far enough away from the magazine when it ignited and he was severally [sic] injured. It was estimated that he was thrown as far as one hundred feet by the blast. Both of his legs were broken, his flesh and eyes badly burned and he was reported as 'killed' by some observers. That night he was found by Major W. B. Lowell of the Connecticut 11th who had him moved through Union lines to a hospital where he was treated by Dr. Whitcomb. As a captured Southerner under the doctors care, he slowly recovered and eventually regained his eyesight. Major Lowell visited him frequently, wrote letters to his mother, read and played the violin for him. After five months he was well enough to travel. General Burnside arranged for a special escort to return Captain James M. Mayo back to his home in Edgecombe County. He re-enlisted in September of 1862 in the North Carolina 4th Calvary (North Carolina 59th Regiment) as a Field Officer, appointed to the rank of Major October 7, 1862. His unit first saw service in North Carolina and Southern Virginia. In May of 1863, his unit was placed under the command of Brigadier General Beverly Robertson. At the Battle of Upperville Virginia on June 21, 1863, leading a charge against Union Forces which ended in hand-to-hand combat, he was captured a second time. He was sent to Old Capital Prison in Washington DC and on August 8, 1863, transferred to Johnson Island Military Prison, Lake Erie, Sandusky, Ohio where he remained until February 24, 1865, and was then transferred to City Point, Virginia for exchange. While a Prisoner of War at Johnson Island he kept a detailed diary of the day-to-day event of prison life. The first of two volumes, covering the period from August 7, 1863 through March 10, 1864, is in the Library of Congress, Manuscript Division, and is stated to be one of the best accounts of prison life written by either Yankee or Rebel. A second volume, covering the period from March 1864 to his release in February 1865, has been lost" ["James Micajah Mayo", Memories of Dixie, NamSouth Forum, accessed July 2021.].
